Money is waiting for you - Accept the Money question

I just recently started selling things on ebay again and I just made my first sale in a long time. My Summary says I have money waiting for me and there's a accept the money button. When I click it, I have the option of verifying my SSN for a cash account or linking a bank. In the first case I don't have my SS card with me to submit proof of identity so I can't create a cash paypal account. I get an error when trying to link a bank account and to try again but honestly I don't want to link a bank account either... not yet at least as I don't want to do multiple small balance transfers to my bank account daily. My question is: Is this money that the buyer paid(I already shipped the items) mine or will it go back to the them if I don't click the accept the money button? Will the buyer be able to reclaim it if I just leave it there for the time being until the balance grows large enough to move to a bank account or until I get a hold of my SS card?
Thanks

If you don't accept the funds then they will go back to the buyer at 30 days post payment.
